If it were Snyder, there would have been more pressure on him to sell by now.

Davis? His defense is pretty much “I tried to work out an alternative stadium deal that passed 5-1 but you assholes killed it.”

It would be someone from the LA Relocation Executive Committee. Those were the owners that were deposed.

They probably don't care. Based on what slick is saying, they just want the world to burn.

Side note, but I was actually surprised the NFL let the Rams and Chargers move to LA.

Not because of those franchises specifically, but because LA as a potential relocation destination was always a bargaining chip for nearly every NFL franchise to use to leverage their existing cities into sweetheart stadium deals.

In other words, “give us a lopsided stadium deal or we’ll move to LA” is off the table now.

Mara and Jones are the only possibilities for messing up the deposition. Kroenke tried to drown the attorneys in paperwork by submitting something like 28K documents.

The claim is that one unnamed owner fricked up in their deposition and that is the source of this mess, with no name given.


Are you sure he "fricked up" or was it payback?
Aside from Kroenke & Jerry there were only 4 other people in that room and Hunt didn't take a position.

They are like rappers… they run up huge fricking bills then settle for pennies on the dollar when people expecting them to pay get in a financial bind.

The list of owners gives a big clue as to who it was


Hunt
Mara
Kraft
Kroenke
Jerry Jones
Jerry Richardson


One of these names is not like the others. One of these names just doesn’t belong.

I find it hysterical that they kicked out everyone but the owners and senior execs, and the entire proceeding was still leaked out blow for blow.

The Rams needing to be successful and producing revenue for the future legal bills is why this happened:

I just want to see the email from the league to the NFL referee association telling the refs to help the Rams any way they can to get to the Superbowl.

Disclosure is going to be a bitch for NFL and owners, and they know it.

That should scare the shite out of them.

One of the six guys on the committee was forced out as an owner under ugly circumstances and has no loyalty to the league as a result.

Richardson probably knows where the bodies are buried in regards to the relocation, among other things, and you are right that it should scare the shite out of the NFL.

Richardson was a respected and influential owner during his time in the league. He knows where a lot of the bodies are buried.

His friendship with a few of the other owners and possibly some ongoing business dealings are only reason he has to keep his mouth shut.

His animosity towards Goodell and the owners that forced him out are reasons to burn everything down.

Ole Jerry Richardson may be getting a visit from the Clinton's "fixer" soon...

And BTW, why the fuk didnt Kroenke just pay off the STL people and shut them up? He's married to A fricking Walton...
